This site encourages the use of the term "human" to describe only the best attributes of our species

About

It is a common habit to excuse bad behavior as human when in fact our bad behavior is more often animal like. What does it say that we think so poorly of ourselves? Human capacity for broad compassion is exceptional and may even be unique. It would be better I think to use our species name to reference only our characteristics that are gentle, wize, and kind.
